Recipe | Summer Veggie Flatbread

I have been obsessed with flatbreads as of late. I bake the pizza dough/flatbread/naan during my Friday prep so if I'm feeling lazy some evening all I have to do is preheat the oven and throw some toppings on to the flatbread. It doesn't get much easier. Flatbreads are a great go-to meal because you can make a couple at once so that everyone gets what they like and you can throw anything on top. I also love the combo of artichokes and caramelized onions on flatbreads. So good.

Over the summer I love adding zucchini, corn, and yellow squash onto flatbreads, just because those ingredients aren't as good the rest of the year. The flatbread recipe I have for you today includes two summer veggies; zucchini and corn, and of course I added some of my favorite bacon (

) all crumbled up just for an extra touch of deliciousness. This is a quick and simple recipe, especially if you prep the dough or flatbread ahead of time!
